House of Transformation – Voice Dialogue Retreat

With Robert Stamboliev

The 5-day House of Transformation – Voice Dialogue Retreat is a program that provides unparalleled opportunities for intensive learning – a time to explore one’s inner world, experience the Voice Dialogue process and make a Next Step in one’s life. A slowing down of time, away from the daily routines in a special environment where being together, the meeting, interaction and exchange with one another will be a source of inspiration and lead to new insights. The group consist of a maximum of 8 participants and there will be at least 1 trainer on every 4 participants, in order to give each participant Voice Dialogue sessions. This way of working gives abundant opportunity for personal work and in-depth coaching. It also guarantees that each participant can work on his or her level.

For whom?
The House of Transformation retreats are open for professionals (psychologists, psychotherapists, coaches, trainers, carreer counselors, mediators, managers) who are looking for new inspiration and who wish to deeply experience this approach in order to make a Next Step in one’s life. During the week participants will develop more awareness about their own functioning, their dilemma’s and the parts that play a role in this. Work will be done to enhance the possiblities to choose.

Venue
The retreat will be held in our comfortable residence, nicely situated in the lovely village Bergen aan Zee, in a beautiful coastal region in the Netherlands.
